  • Testing Infinite Scenarios with Simulation

    Replacing the human driver is key to transitioning from ADAS to autonomous vehicles. With this comes the promise of more productivity, comfort, and most importantly, safety, but the feeling of uneasiness remains as failure puts lives and reputations at risk. This complex challenge requires testing to account for infinite real-world scenarios.

No One Can Achieve Autonomous Driving Alone

Advanced driver assistance systems use sensors and specialized software to detect people, other vehicles, and their environment for a safer future.

The NI toolchain and systems quickly adapt to and future-proof your validation process. We connect you with subject matter experts, ideas, and technology in testing, simulation, cloud computing, IT infrastructure, and more to create solutions that meet and exceed quality standards within the disruptive active safety domain. By combining our strengths with those of trusted third-party experts, we work with you to build a connected ADAS and AD validation workflow to get your vehicles to market faster.

Connected ADAS and AD Workflow

ADAS and AD validation workflows often consist of many disparate pieces. Seamlessly connecting solutions leads to a streamlined workflow that increases coverage, accelerates development, and improves quality.

Enabling the Connected Workflow

At NI, we help you achieve a connected workflow built on our open system architecture. This includes industry standards like PXI, providing compact, modular, and flexible instrumentation-grade I/O and nanosecond-level timing and synchronization for cutting-edge measurement quality and performance. Our open software-centric approach enables interfaces and connectivity to third-party simulation tool providers, IT infrastructure, and cloud services, giving you the freedom to choose from the best to reach your solution faster. Through the NI ADAS and AD ecosystem, you can collaborate with experts to fully empower your connected ADAS and AD validation workflow, covering data record, data replay, digital twins, software in the loop, HIL, sensor fusion, and other XIL or V&V applications.
